A well known party living in the city is
making business of fishing in the Little
River with nets at night. 4 movement is on
foot to have him arrested and dsalt with ac-
cording TO law. The law of the state regard
ing fishing with nets or trsps is as follows
Chapter los, section . laws of 1856. II shall
be unlawful to catch or attempt to catch or
to kill fish in any of the inland waters of the
state of Kansas by means of any drag net
gall net. drift. net, trammel net, sein. fish pot
set net, wife pond, or by poisoning the water
with lime or any deleterious substance what
ever, or by making any obstruction TO the
natural transit of Ash for the purpose of
catching the same. Provided, nothing in
this act shall prevent persons from fishing in
private ponds on their own land ANY per
son violating the provisions of this act shall
be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon
conviction thereof shall be fined in a sum not
less than ten dollars nor more than fifty dol
lars The Little Arkansas river is an inland
stream, and Is protected by this law, and we
hope that measures viii be taken to put
stop to the fishing with nets lin this river.
A lesson should be taught these fellows who
in utter disregard for the law carry on this
contemplate business. PRrv1s
